We have been featured in Beauty Packaging’s December 2023 Issue! Featuring our contribution to their ‘Why Innovative Packaging is Now a Must-Have for Beauty Brands’ article, featuring our collaboration with Eastman on our Mono Material Refillable PET Compact!

Mono-materials have become top of mind for many brands and suppliers as a simplified way for consumers to recycle by just throwing everything into one bin, with no need to separate components. Mono-materials have entered the scene in everything from compacts to bottles, jars to caps.

Our mono material, refillable compact was designed and engineered by our New Product Development team in collaboration with Eastman and made with Eastman Cristal™ One Renew-100, an RIC1 resin with 100% certified recycled content, as verified via an ISCC-certified mass balance approach. The elimination of traditional metal hinges and pins greatly improves the recyclability of the compact while its refillable design allows consumers to easily replenish their cosmetic products. The “cam action hinge” releases the insert when the cover is fully extended, so you can simply remove the empty insert and click the new refill insert into place. Available with 60mmD panwell.

Tara Cary, global cosmetics and personal care packaging manager at Eastman says, “We are excited to have collaborated with ICONS|ICS on this innovative project. The integration of design and materials expertise allowed us to create a game-changing solution that addresses the growing consumer demand for recycled content and recyclability in packaging in a refillable application they can reuse again and again.”
